The aim of the course is to provide basic acquaintance with the major trajectories of Indian philosophy. We will embark on a “road-trip” between texts, thinkers and ideas, from the Vedas and the Upanishads to the Great Epics, the Sūtra texts, Buddhist philosophy, Yoga, issues in ethics and aesthetics, and finally, contemporary Indian philosophy. We will raise a thousand questions, from the perennial question of self-identity and the ever-burning question of freedom, to questions about time and temporality, language and its (im)possibilities, and of course, what is philosophy, drawing on Indian sources.
